Your final will be TYPED, Double-spaced.

• We read through the instructions on the assignment sheet aloud with a partner and then reviewed it together, as a class.
• I gave examples of various designs one could use for her/his own coat of arms/shield, and answered questions to clarify the expectation.

• Review of the Pretérito – Regular e Irregular: we played the Lotería games prepared as homework.
• Period 2 – Trabajo de firmas: circulated through the class looking for others who know the answers to the cultural questions on the handout. These were turned in as the “Ticket out the door”.
